cloned by gland, it was drawn still closer and closer by ante, so much so, as to induce Mr. Busrisson to visit Paris, with the hope of effect ing a change in the commercial policy of the French Cabinet: 'Phis visit was Untoward and' Mr. Husitisiatc retuiiied without, having accom plished any part of the object of his journey. %ore then,however, we are told the negociatioas have been, resumed,'and hopes 'are now cherished t hat before long a new Commercial Treaty between these two great Empires, will amalgamate their interests, lead to a more free, and more unre strained intercourse, and open a mutually ad vantageous trade to each nation. We most sincerely hope . this information may he correct, and heartily desire the ratification of such a treaty, the stipulations of which shall insure their observance by working for the mutual benefit of each country. In the present position of affairs in the North of Europe, such a treaty is more than ever desir able, as it must at once check any hostile inten tions on the part of Russia, and contrihnte to the preservation of Peace ; a point of no mall moment both to England and France, as upon it their future prosperity, in a very great measure depends. Burdened with a debt so im• tnene as that of England, she can hardly enter into any contest, but under disadvantages al most ruinous to her ; and any extra expendi ture only opens the sources of these evils which a cautions politician must too truly perceive, Mid A,4 166 can he alone avoided by persevering in that peaceful policy which has been for sonic' years past so successfully pursued. Moreover, suck a coarse gives time for the developement of the fruits of those plans which the sagacity of the administration has devised, and the wisdom of Par liament sanctioned, for receiving and augmenting our resources, and imparting new energy to every Member of time State. Leagued together by compact, what nation %OH presume to break through the policy pur surd by England and France united, or dare to disturb the peace, of Europe, .but at their good will and pleasure.

The night of the 6th instant set in with strong gales, at south-west ; at eight P. at. it increased to a gale, with heavy squalls, and at midnight to a perfect hurricane, and the lLiy being unusually full of vessels, some broke their moorings, drove on board others, and carried all before them. In the morning the beach from Landport to near this Spanish Lines was covered with wrecks of every description, square-rigged vessels, latteens, boats, spurs, &c.; the number cannot be less than 200; in some places seven or eight deep, jamming and crushing each other. Towards noon the weather subsided, and though it was not quite settled, it' is hoped there will be no recurrence of these dig. • asters. Exet t ions are making to save cargoes.' The Colombian privateer General .Soublelte. is entirely wrecked : the Captain and Surgeon, and 31 men, e3C4kl here.; upwards of 80 are pri soners in the Spanish Lines ; and two or three' were killed by the Spanish' guard firing upon them. A number of lives have been lost ;,some crushed, others drow ne d : the number is not yet known." lIXTRACTOr ANOTHER LETTER, DATED STU ULT 64 WO have to advise you of one of the most violent gales of wind. ever felt here, and which has produced the most calamitous results. For these eight days past we had rough weather from the south-west to west, but on the evening of the 6th the wind shifted tot v h e etr r ti7 v e e s e. t, and blew a perfect hurricane. Several north-west, sels in the bay soon got adrift, and carried all before them. There are upwards of 100 vessels ashore on the neutral ground, many of them per fect wrecks. Of same others not a vestige can be found, nor of their crews. Several went down at their anchors. The number of lives lost cannot be ascertained. Many of the poor Spanish emigrants, recently turned out of the garrison to favour Ferdinand, have perished. There was in the buy the Colombian privateer General Soublette,, which was driven from her anchor, under the Spanish guard-house, on the neutral ground, and in a shock got diamasted and filled with water, heeling over to the starboard side when the crew e ndeavoured to escape, the Spanish troops fired upon diem. The captain and about e 0 men made their escape to our part o f th e neutral ground, and sought protection for his crew front our Government. It was refused. The Spa niards,mean time,continued to fire,6 nding the crew could, not return it, and murdered many in cold hloOd. One of the Colombians then mounted the rigging with a flag of truce, and was there shot by the'Custom-house officers; but Mr. Tur ber, the commanding officer, , then on board, was allowed to come on shore. the terms could not be agreed upon, and Turner wished to go aboard again, but the noble Spaniard told him that he was a prisotier ! At last, on the interference of g en tlemen from. our garrison, particularly 13. Henry, Esq., Consul for the 'Jolted States, a p a p e r was signed, engaging to save their lives; and the survivors, about 80, were landede—The brig S4rah, from Liverpool, is ashore." room ANOTHER LETTER, DATED 10T11 LILT. tt About 200 vessels arc lost on the neutral grounds: there were D essly 300 in the bay at the commencement of the hunt. cane out of which it is calculated only twelve have escape d c w 4f le ' u t serious In jury." DE PItADT'S CONGRES DE PANAMA. (Contitutedfrom the S'isr of Friday WO ". Le genre humain. est en merche, et rien tie Ic fern etro. ' Wader." • prognossive extension of Russia has long been viewed by politicians with gloomy forebod ings as to the future safety and IndepentlenCe of 'Kurope. None have contemplated this subject with more apparent 'conviction than Napoleon, who even assumed it as an apology for his inva sion of that Power, end asserted that his prement subjugatimi of the North might perhaps put back the evil day for a century, although he foresaw its inevitable occurrence at some future period. M, tie Plt/DT seems equally satisfied on this point, as lie. does not endeavour to establish the position, but alludes to it as a Burt of self-evident and acknowledged fact : " Spain is completely neutralized as to the policy of Europe : she is no longer a living member of the European system : the latter cannot fail to suffer from the defection of a supporter who might have filled an important place. Europe to Ito con stituted, that in her defensive system Against Busses, (4 enneny forms the carps de dataille, France the reserve, the Netherlands the left wing of this reserve, Spain the right wing, and England is the Treasurer of this Protecting Federation. The place of Spain is at present empty, she, bate as it were, deserted Europe, and the latter is enfeebled by this defectiou, which is partly produced by the war Against America, in which Spain obsti nately persists, contrary to all reason. " Should the war continue, the Congress of Panama ought to form and cement in the moat' solemn manner, a perpetual league between all the New States of America. Slliat can Spain effect against a coalition united by all interest so power ful and soereneral ? She was unable to resist each separate State, and she would oppose the conshinett eflOrt of their great body, of wl•ich no internal obstacle will obstruct the dee velopement, strong •in its, successes, its experience, and its instruction ! But would not the greatest hiss to Spain be in her exclusion from a participation In the advantages which America will iffer to all those who cultivate commercial tele tions with her ? By her mad . oppoeitiote, Spain exposes her self to be deprived of them, if slot for ever, at least for it long time ; and it is very evident, that America alone, by her corn- theme. might become the healer of the miseries of S p ain, and •, pour new bloods ruin title emaciated body. For seveneand twenty years, I cry to Spain as to the rest of Europe—you have but one line of conduct to pursue with respect to-Ame . rice : as to her, leave politice, properly so tidied, out of the question, and think only of the profits of her coin erce you abuse yourselves unceasingly in 'regard. to America.— Pursuing your old ideas, and your routine, you , absolutely • wish to malice America a field of political speculations, and, in point of fact, she is only afield for commercial speculation. On this subject a general mistake preVails, 'and one of a most in jorious deacription ; it is such 'errors as this which spoil an en. tire system, and the consequences of which are felt so long afterwards. America is unconnected with every sort of politics, for or against Europe ; on the other himde she enters most pro. fousdly into her intertste as 'to fortune and • riches, and dime are the soul and sinews,nf poliey. The distance which divides America and Europe being so great as to render it difficult for them to attack each other; the richer party has an immense ad vantage over the poorer needs no arms against her, it is sufficient for her (the richer) to open or shut herself up for or against her poorer an tegonist ; this is the true curb to be put on the hostilities of which - 'sire may become the object. I.et us suppose America elixsatisliedavith England ; . would she have any occasion to item herself:and have recourse to positive force ? assuredly not; it would be enough for her to suspend her trade; England is not in a position to auppart this sus pension ; on: all sides of the Brit;sh empire would rise a oowerful voice demanding' that the wrong should be re 'dressed' which had caused this interdict; America would speak lii the assemblies •of Westminster, and would drown the voices which might be raised .against her. By a simple negation America is snore powerful against Europe, than Europe with rill her forces would he ngalnttt her ; this is an elementary ; which cannot be too strongly insisted upon, and which I am desirous to impress on all, for the common advan tage of all. Apply this theory to, Spain, and see to what she exposes herself by voluntarily incurring the anathema of com mercial exclusion with which .America may strike her . . Spain exposes herself to this punishment by the continuance of the war, and, already extremely poor, she from wantosiness'of heart, provokes what will complete her min. This emery is so little advanced with respect to her habitual councils, that the most simple ideal have not yet been able to penetrete them, and they are still dreaming of grandeur, power, and policy, in the way that might have suited the age of Clutriee v." • . As to the right of Spain lo the possession of her fortify!' ecilonies, 1110 writer observes contest the t;ghts .of America, it w ould b e nec essary to begin by extithlislong that'her first conquest was legitimate, that America was tTeated for eipain, and that nations, without any ether riglits than those of 'levying, •require none from ex cessive end irremediable suflaing In 'the causes which produce it. The natural consequence of this system ii, to divide the world into irresponsible masters aid slaves without hope. Panama will not, assuredly, be an cello of - Laybach, and will ant with it nay it &imp to Princes alone to modify in stitutions by spontaneous acts of their will, and that they ogre nu account but to God. It the powers prevailing in Europe have ' found their principles in, the interests of their position, America will also seek fleet, there, and will maintain them by her power, •as the European powers maintain their supremacy by their force; each 'hun the serve right, end applies it according to his. situation. 'ln 'Europe, they any what they like—when they can; • why enfold they "not do the satne•in America ? If it were permitted for an instant to lend thoughts and word. to America,—if there were not too touch presumption in serving' her momentarily as an interpreter, one would say: all the policy of America toward Europe is reduced to these words: ‘• liftmen all to the banquet which I prep a re for you; whoever shall bring to it a friendly heart, shall partake of this feast; whoever shall nourish hostile dispositions shall he excluded ; I. have nothing to fear, nor to desire ;• but I know my own worth, I will open or shut my bosom, accordingly as you arc well or ill disposed towards the ; take your . choice. I reward or punish by opening or Ain tting my gates, end my most powerful weapon is a simple r negation." . With regard to the Colonial System, and the • inevitable Emancipation of all Colonies when a rived at maturity, ril. De PltotrYr observes— " Europe has nothing to lose by this disposition, and she has no greater interest than to encourage the prosperity of her ancient colonies, that is, by giving them up to theniselves, twin to find them again more fruitful in thie state of liberty; as England finds the United States, as all Europe will find South America. The old Colonial theory is destroyed by facts, convinced of the impossibility of - maintaming itself, by expo. rience, and called upon to give way to new methods, by the common effort of all the civilization of the globe. England no longer defends the system but in the half of the Antilles and in India; some time longer and her colonies will be um open as are the three Kingdoms. Such is the natural march of things, the honour belongs to him who is the first to recognize.it, to proclaim it, and - to apply it; anti this , honour will belong to America. • " The chief attribute of the Arneritan State* will be maxi. time and commercial Mout.; the greater part of the American population will be established upon a row of Ans. Monsand miles in extent, and upon the hanks (Wilms(' innumerable rivers, which water America in all directions—immense cities will be formed at the mouths of the great rivers. Titus New York, New Order's:a, and Buenos Ayres, are destined to become in:. mecca centres of population. To convince ourselves of this, one need only follow in thelnap the oursce of the rivers, and the of luents which swell then: out, of which these cities Occu py the mouths. The maritime cities which have not long courses of water , as well as the continental cities, will never equal them: thus, Linta and Rio Janeiro, although favoured by the pre. sence of a great government, and.by the sea,—thus Sank Fe dc Bogota, although the centre of a powerful government—will never equal the cities first named, to which the excellencies of their position assign advantages that nothing can compensate. It is thus, that Paris, with its modest stream and its meagre affluents, will never equal Loudon, whatever inequality there may otherwise be between the countries of which these two cities arc the capitals In America, the Western More will ever be frOrior to the Eastern, for the reason just assigned ; it will consequently be much lcsi maritime N. d e Pradt considers successively the several important topics which must form the subjects of discussion and arrangement at the Congress of Panama ; such as—the exact definition of the maritime and commercial taw of nations—the re. lations of South America with the Court of Rome —the permanent military establishment—the • This prediction was accomplished• even before the publi cation of this work—by the Decree of Vcro,of the 17th April. slave trade, Etc. On the subject of standing armies he observes : • " The Republican establishment fohneu toroughout America is opposed to that of a great permanent military force; the United States have wisely avoided it; Rome perished by means of her armies; they gave her Marius and the twelve Ctesars, as it set oft' against the Hrutuses, the Eabriciuses, the hoes, the illareellusaes,, and the Sciplosi F 4 ngland feels the evil of her increased army; Switzerland maintains no regular troops ; Holland had theM, and accordingly she found a master in the Captain-tleneral Stsdtholder, Admiral- General of this singular republic. In republics, the entire spirit ought to be civil ; the military spirit is anti-civil ; it creates in the soldier a disposition to dispise the unarmed citizen &c. The soldier is an instrument of pure execution, apd he loves nothing else, being as much to he feared in the interior of States as he is respectable on their frontiers ; the multiplica tion of soldiers is a very active principle of war ; one has war when one has soldiers, as one has soldiers when one has war— ns Frederic confessed on the occasion of his first war against M aria Theresa. They are, with respect to this scourge both cause and etreet, as they are with reference to taxes; it is the multiplica tion of military forces which has reduced all the finances of Europe to their present condition : and when confiding in a numerous, breve t and akilful army, a warrior, has waged war for fifty years, and eat up ten times the fortune of the State, he dies, letting fall from an expiring mouth these repentant words, I have loved tear too much,--a fine consolation for the millions of victims of this warlike mania, and the bankruptcy which it entails;" Ta be °medal:ad.)
